Baby Food Jar Candles

Have a bunch of glass baby food jars laying around and want to make a cute, decorative candle for the season? Here's a super easy way to use them up!

Materials:

-glass baby food jar

-tea light candle

-vellum

-ribbon

-paper / stamps / ink

First cut 2 strips of vellum at 4 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches.

Then cut 2 strips of paper or card stock at 1 inch by 4 1/2 inches

Glue or tape the paper strips onto the bottom of the vellum

Then stamp your vellum / paper to decorate for whatever season you'd like.

Then place the two pieces of vellum with the backs together (so the fronts are both on the outside) and punch two holes on each side.
Run ribbon through the holes and tie bows, knots, whatever you'd like.

Then place your baby food jar inside your finished vellum cover and put a tea light inside the bottom. When you light it up, it'll shine nicely through the vellum.

These are great for storing because all you have to do is pull out the jar and the candle sleeve will lay flat. So you can make some for every season and just rotate them in and out.
